Anmerkungen
Poetry journal edited by Japanese-American Shig Murao, longtime factotum at City Lights Books who was arrested for selling a copy of Howl to the police. City Lights owner Lawrence Ferlinghetti contributes poems under a pseudonym (Sadie Monsanto) in issues no.1 and 2. Issue no.3, published nine years after the first, is satiric, listing Shig as the only contributor and consisting entirely of variations of the same photograph by Beth Bagby of Shig holding a toy wooden bird on a stick. With a duplicate of the first 2 issues. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE XX.
